S. Korean Organization Denounces U.S. Moves for THAAD Deployment
Pyongyang, July 12 (KCNA) -- The People for Achieving Peace and Reunification of south Korea met in Seoul on July 9 to lash out at the U.S. moves for deploying THAAD in south Korea, a factor of increasing the danger of a war on the Korean peninsula.

The organization referred to the fact that the U.S. assistant secretary of State made a trip to south Korea that day.

It accused him of asserting that THAAD is "a decisive force to cope with missiles from the north."

THAAD deployment in south Korea would escalate military conflict among neighboring countries and lay hurdles in the way of peace and reunification on the Korean peninsula, it held.

Noting that the "government" should disallow THAAD deployment if it truly stands for peace, the organization declared that it would wage actions against its deployment.
